  1. I LOVE LONDON! :clap: Last night I took my cab home from my job in the City to SW London where I live and I had a good look around me so that I could write this evening. I drove down the Embankment along the river at 10.15pm at night and it was so beautiful that I really don't know where Roy James got his observations from. I had a good look at the streets and there was hardly any litter on them. London is full of gorgeous landmarks: Tower Bridge, The Eye, Houses of Parliament etc; wonderful parks, great cycle routes, fantastic restaurants, clubs and bars, theatres and museums (and so much more). I find the diversity of cultures truly amazing - you can find a restaurant for any cuisine you want from any country. All my gay friends say it is the one place where they can walk around hand in hand and feel comfortable doing it - not worried they will get comments or worse. London embraces all people, and I am proud that it does. True some area ARE dirty, but that is because London is broken up into boroughs and each borough has a local council. If the council is a wealthy one and it doesn't have to spend all its money on benefits and housing, it subsequently has more to spend on maintenance and road cleaning etc. Vice versa if a borough does have a lot to spend out on or is mismanaged as the London Borough of Hackney has been then you get potholed roads, dirty streets, grafitti and crime. But, unfortunately this happens in all major cities.... not just London. To tar the whole of London with the same brush is small minded and ridiculous. To tar all of South London with the same brush is also ridiculous as South London has an abundance of beautiful parks, nice towns and lovely riverside pubs, but of course like any area (South London being HUGE) you will come across some areas which are not so nice... London is such a big place that unfortunately you cannot appreciate it all without either living here or visiting it more than once or twice a year. I love London, but am moving to Sheffield in Sept or Oct because of my husband's job. I have been to Sheffield 4/5 times in the last 3 months... I have seen some complete s***holes but not once have I got on this forum to slag Sheffield off... I am waiting till I move there to form a genuine, and more importantly, INFORMED opinion of ALL of Sheffield before I say anything. There I have said my piece.
  2. Don't kwik fit do them? Give them a ring first thing tomorrow morning and see if they can fit you in. Look in http://www.yell.co.uk for one near you or do a supersearch under MOT and see which garages do them who are open on Saturdays.
  3. Robbie That's really sad! Are you ok? I feel that not everyone needs to have a purpose and plan - the world is made up of all different people - some who are wanderers and some who are go getters... its nicer that way! How old are you? The reason I ask is not to be patronising, but just to point out that everything changes and you never know what is round the corner..
  4. No and I wasn't offering! Ha ha ha! Im too old for you anyway! Just trying to establish what colour subaru we are looking for now and whether it has any passengers!
  5. I am trying to ignore you - though the magic carpet ride is tempting! Which one are you? Aladdin, the monkey or the genie?
  6. No need to get your coat - I thought it was funny! Or is it scrappy doo? :hihi: What say you redrobbo? By the way Star - do you have a token blonde?
  7. You are a cheeky monkey Mr PhilB! I was only concerned for your sanity! I was worried that you would need redrobbo's straight jacket and look where my concern has got me?! heh heh? and me a married woman!
  8. Blimey! you have got it bad! Now if I was closer, I would grab you by the shoulders shake you and then slap you across each cheek! True though - I don't get to see many subarus (not the area I live in! - Lifts nose up a few inches! LOL) but if I did, red or not I think I would always be reminded of the vast amounts of typing time - not to mention the humour and warmth within this thread - it is bringing a tear to my eye as I think about it!
  9. I have to agree somewhat - in reality, crunchie has spilled the beans so to speak, but we are still posting! Maybe the thread has nothing to do with crunchie nor his "joke" maybe it goes much deeper than that! :suspect: :wow:
  10. What you saying PhilB? Conspiracy theory? Not really a windup? Have I fallen for something that is not true? Is there life in the subaru alert yet?
  11. Should we be worried about the brown noses?
  12. Neasden is a complete tip but then I am sure there are parts of Sheffield which would compare - in fact I am sure! AND South London - are you mad! Where about in South London did you go? South London is now the home of rich WHITE couples in designer flats - coming from South London myself I would know.... Also the previous comment regarding E London - it is very multicultural, but there it is full of rich whites as well - properties are being snapped up and developed and now it is so expensive that only really wealthy people can afford them.... Phew! I get so bored of this white facist stuff - especially people who just come to visit relatives.... Getting off the motorway at a particular junction and driving straight to your destination does not constitute KNOWLEDGE of London.
  13. :( Time to say goodbye to the red subaru alert - I salute you crunchie:clap: - it was a good wind up - really thought you were a sandwich short of a picnic! Enjoyed it ..... now where shall I go from this?!
  14. Don't get him started on boats! Mind you I do agree - forums are supposed to be about discussions, friendly chats etc.... so far Crunchie seems a bit reticent in contributing to and participating in discussion of any kind.... only one line comments regarding cars..... I think PhilipB that cars are his hobby and that is the sum total to Crunchie... no offence meant, but maybe you should stay off the computer and just watch pimp my ride. :hihi:
